Excellent recipe and very easy! I didn't have the yogurt so I used sour cream. I also substituted a mix of brown sugar and cinnamon for the jam and made cinnamon coffee cake muffins. The kids ate all but 2 before school this morning! YUM *** Edited today because I didn't have the yogurt or sour cream. I used 3/4 of a cup of milk and just omitted the yogurt. They still turned out perfect! This one is a definite keeper.*** -
These are the best muffins I have ever had in my life! I mean it! I made them as written except for the plain yogourt. I was only able to get vanilla so I used that. I will do it again too! As we are a family with jam issues, I made them with orange marmalade for me, strawberry jam for the kids and grape jelly for my DH2B. All turned out perfectly. I can't wait to share these with the neighbours! They are going to love them! Thank you SO much for sharing such a perfect recipe!

Hello:
I live with my husband (of 41 years) way out in the toolies.
We have three grown sons--no grandchildren.
I'm an avid reader, writer, and I enjoy cooking. Currently, I'm resuming herb and vegetable gardening after a long hiatus.
Desert gardening is tricky. Winter is our main garden season. This year I'm experimenting with large desert style cold frames so I can grow winter vegetables September through February.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed
